This week on the podcast we're talking about future-proofing your job, automatic extreme couponing, and rooting your Android. We're also answering your questions about the purpose of 4G cellular data, building or buying a new computer, and recording phone calls.

How To Futureproof Your Job with a Career Insurance Policy: Jobs come and go, but hopefully your career is bit more solid. If it's not, your skills, goals, and personal career plan can guide you, but it's never a bad time to prepare for a future layoff, job change, or even promotion. They can be tricky to handle, but a strong career "insurance policy" can give you the confidence to make the right choice no matter what life throws at you. Here's how to build one.

How to Automate Your Discounts and Always Get the Best Price: Clipping coupons can save a lot of money, but it can also waste a lot of time. You don't have to join the ranks of extreme couponers to ensure you get a great deal. With a few tips and tools, you can automate those discounts and save yourself money without any of the work.

What's the point of 4G? It's faster. You may burn through your data faster if you use more, but if you just use the same amount of data as you did on 3G you'll just wait less. It's a shame that carriers don't offer massive amounts of data in a cellular plan but faster is better than slower. In terms of it being worthwhile when considering a phone purchase, a lot of us feel it is but it might not be for you. Read this for more on the subject.

I need a new desktop PC. I don't care it it's a Mac or Windows PC. I'm a little wary of building, but don't know what to buy. What should I do? If you're going to buy a desktop, get an iMac because you can run Windows or OS X on it and the hardware's really great. We really think you should build a computer, however, as it's a lot cheaper and much easier than you probably think. We have a PC Building Guide and a Hackintosh Guide to get you through the basics. When it comes to picking hardware, just consult these $600 and $1200 PC builds, our Hackintosh Pro guide, or this awesome all-in-one build.

How Do I Submit a Question?

Please keep your questions as brief as possible. This means about 3-5 sentences for emails and 30-60 seconds for calls and videos. Your questions can be specific, but broader questions are generally better because they'll apply to more people. For example, "how can I breathe new life into my old PDA?" is much better than "what can I do with an old HP iPAQ 210?" Either way, we look forward to hearing from you!
